The situation is pretty confusing, but you’re still gonna be able to side load unverified apps. The “advanced flow” that makes sideloading obnoxious to do is specifically for unverified apps, whereas verified apps (where devs have to fork up their ID to google) can be installed without any hassle.

You can still sideload apps. While the change is ridiculous, you still can sideload apps. They just make it significantly more painful to enable sideloading.

I would use phtn.app because it lets you log into any instance, and it’s also up-to-date. The lemmy.world version is over a year old

irrelevant to the post but this is about the first image with ultra HDR ive ever seen on lemmy.

having llm output in your training set is irrecoverable

i used to think model collapse was an actual problem for LLMs as well, but it turns out that most popular models nowadays use intentionally synthetic data for things like reasoning traces and math. a lot of models (like gemini) also have subtle watermark patterns that let the trainers just filter out llm responses for factual data

i doubt that Lemmy is being intentionally scraped by AI companies, otherwise it’d give their LLMs even more severe brain damage.

you saw LLMs being used in medicine almost 15 years ago? was it something else because the the transformer model was invented in 2017

Gnome seems to have amnesia whenever using sftp. disconnect once? say goodbye to ALL of your bookmarked network folders even after reconnecting.

i am going to crash out if ONE more website with an average of 4 monthly users puts on cloudflare “Under Attack Mode” and makes me sit through 15 seconds of verification before I can view their stupid webpage

Ok

that’ll show them, Google will be in shambles after some random app with like 1k downloads that makes them negative revenue threatens to REMOVE themselves from the PLAY STORE!!!

my problem isn’t really about the topic at hand, it’s moreso that the community has so many controversies constantly that nobody will really ever want to join. The user base will slowly dwindle away

The Lemmy experiment is over. was fun while it lasted

Photon on lemmy.world also hasn’t been updated for almost 1 year now, if you want to use your lemmy.world account you can use https://phtn.app/ which lets you use any instance and is always up to date

while it’s not great, a ton of websites did this to themselves by turning every 1 paragraph piece of information into a 5 page listicle with ads splattered all over the place. I don’t think AI search stuff would be nearly as popular if websites didn’t make their content impossible to view.

Cloudflare stuff has broken for me when I had a user agent switcher enabled. maybe that’s it?

how tf do you activitypub live multiplayer games, separate http request per packet?

In the main menu > accounts, try adding a guest account for some other instance like lemmy.zip. does that server work?
